Hello Linux Guru's,
        I'm new to this and need some assistance.  I've installed RedHat 5.2
and can't get my 3Com NIC to work.  I've tried reading as much as I could
about it and searching the internet but with no luck.  Would someone guide
me thru the steps I need to get the NIC up and running?  Here are the info
messages that come up during bootup:
